Tumblr,
My brother Kaylan Perry, used to work at a Forever 21 in Alabama. While there a white girl had begun to like him and when my brother did not return her affection because he wasn’t interested and had a girlfriend she decided to retaliate. About two weeks ago my brother went to AAMU homecoming, my brother was proud of his college. While there that same girl said racial slurs before telling my brother she “had something for him.” That something was 10-15 Chicago boys from AAMU and Miles college jumping him and beating him until he was unrecognizable. My family begged AAMU to handle this matter but they told us to come back in 3 weeks. My brother didn’t live to see those three weeks as he was murdered the next. These boys drove through my grandmothers neighborhood every night casing the house. On October 4th my brother went out on his motorcycle to deliver a coat he had just bought his one year old son. These boys ran my brother into a pole, breaking his neck and arms. Kaylan was dead upon arrival. And then after these boys killed my brother, they stole his backpack which contained my nephews coat and my brothers cellphone off of his lifeless body. Then these boys ran from the crime scene. Giving false information, The Birmingham police department told the media that my brother was racing with this car. When that was proved wrong this same department called my brother the agitator, and then later said both my brother and the boys who killed him were driving recklessly. Kaylan was running for his life. There are many witnesses who have gone to the department to tell them what they truly saw and each have said that the department has tried to make them feel like they didn’t see what they saw. They have twisted their words. They have basically closed the case on my brother and will not make any efforts to find out the truth. Please spread this word so my brother’s death won’t be in vain.
stop the phrase “tattle-tale”. stop indirectly telling kids that if they speak up about someone that’s bothering them, they’re doing something bad. stop contributing to the culture of abuse.
seriously though this NEEDS to stop. my mother. a grownass woman of 59. had to ask me over and over again if I was sure it wasn’t ethically dubious for her to go to her employer and report harassment and terror tactics from a coworker because she didn’t “want to be a tattler.” stop teaching kids not to be “tattle-tales” because they will not grow out of it.
if any of you are bored you could try taking this color oracle assessment. it’s interesting
this shit dragged my ass within the first two lines of text, I’m done!
me as well
This basically told me I’m always alert so no one’s gonna sneak up on me and kill me (accurate) and that my work life sucks and makes me angry (accurate) [my interpretation]
Draco Malfoy: literally sparkles in the sunlight. What is Draco up to? Where’s Draco? Draco, Draco, Draco, Draco. Pointy features. Really pale. Okay, but Draco, Draco, Draco?
How am I supposed to believe that Harry Potter is an heterosexual man?
My name is Erica. I’m a 22-year old Female who is unable to work due to mental and physical disabilities. My provider Jordan, Wife of 8 years, has been admitted to the Hospital for the sake of her own mental health. She was admitted on October 5th and has missed 6 days of work and over $380 off of her next pay check (As of Oct.11th) with uncertainty as to how many more hours she’s going to miss out on.
Last night, she relapsed for the same reasons she was admitted in the first place. Though she was supposed to be released on Monday, that isn’t looking like it’s going to happen, and she may miss out on more hours. It’s imperative she stays as long as she needs to for the sake of her health but the constant stress of how much money she’s losing is making her condition worse and giving her more negative and detrimental thoughts.
We have a small dog who acts as her security blanket that we have to pay for, she owns her own vehicle, and we have grocery expenses for the two of us over the next coming weeks. We are also already in roughly around $2000 debt on her credit card from previous lack of funds. I am trying my best to bring in some money off of what skills I do have but it isn’t enough and I know if things turn for the worst and she never makes it back from the hospital I’m not going to be able to follow through on my half of commissions.
If you can donate, please send money to: potterqueen@hotmail.com
Anything will help right now. We need about $400 to cover the missed hours from work as of today (Oct. 11th) and have no way of knowing how many more of her work hours she will miss out on due to her mental health. This total does not include the gas for me to go visit her while she’s in-hospital care over 40 mins drive away, or my living expenses while she’s in care.
I’m desperately terrified for my wife and we don’t have any alternate means of getting financial support. I’ve exhausted everything I can to get some form of income-assistance but I have been declined over and over. I’m terrified of losing my wife and I’m terrified of not having enough money for Groceries/Expenses. If you can please donate anything, do.
Thank you so much. I will post an update when she’s out of hospital or if the goal has been met.
